Oh, this happens while the device is running rather than when
initializing it? Applying reset is probably a bad idea then. Still,
perhaps stopping the clock for a short time is fine? What about:

clk_disable_unprepare(clk);
clk_set_parent(clk, tegra->pll_u_480m);
clk_set_rate(clk, rate);
clk_prepare_enable(clk);

That seems much more direct to me. The code above feels over-complex to me.

If the clock really can't be stopped, then I suppose the existing code
in the patch is fine. I'd like to see a final clk_get_rate(clk) call
added, and the value compared against the expected value, to make sure
no rounding/truncation of the divider happened though.
